Default Impreza Type R Whats it worth?

Haven't posted on here for a while but I am thinking about selling my version 6 Type R. Its been stored in a Airchamber since I've owned the car and is in perfect condition.
Current millage 52k car has done a massive 800 miles over 5 years.
I will post some up to date pictures this week and full spec.

There's a user name and a car I've not seen in years. Agree with the above. mint, low mileage examples are getting rare to find so i think the right buyer will be willing to pay

Haven't been on here for a while, Playing about in the Classic Ford scene.
It is a mint example I took a look underneath it today and thought fxxk me.
It would break my heart to see it leave... even worse if it wasn't looked after by the new owner.

Due to inflated prices and credit becoming a little harder to get

I’m in the trade and it’s been terrible. Although I would beg to differ from where I’m standing being a used car trader it’s now easier than ever to get a brand new car on finance for £200 a month so used cars are really not in as much demand!

I've seen the same cars advertised for MONTHS..They go around and around and around...I've been keeping my eye on the JDM's and there's more than a couple of Type R's that have been on and off eBay for nearly 6 months...

There's also a car that was originally advertised for £11k, then he put it up to £15k for a few weeks...I noticed with interest that he's dropped it down to £14k and now I think it's £13k..If he hadn't have been greedy it would probably have sold in the first place..

I wouldn't be surprised to see the bubble burst quite shortly...Not necessarily in values plumetting, but I think the higher value modern classics will dip and stay there..some will collapse though....

There's a maroon Sierra Sapphire online for about £60k...come on for christ's sake.

Pm also sent earlier... are you able to say where you are based ? I moved on from the classic scene some time ago but that looks stunning with some excellent choice mods from what I can see.

I hear you and feel it too. Ive struggled to sell a lovely one owner low mileage c220, 60 plate had to drop the price to finally get the sale. Not sure why the Garage Talk app is messing up my spelling tho!

Not a million miles away from me, a white V6 was recently imported with..get this...only 30k kilometres on the clock!!
I bumped into the owner and he spent "about £13k" bringing it over...£3k of that was in taxes.
Goonet, JDM auctionwatch etc are a couple of good places if you're interested in bringing one over..Usual caution applies obviously.

Will be watching with interest as I have a v6 limited too. Newera had one up for nearly £20k so I’m hoping prices are going that way
